Evernote 2.2 Problem Installing

MemberWhy can't you create an account?
I followed the link on the download page and filled in the info requested.
All it wanted was your name and email account so they could add you to their list of Beta testers. They immediately sent (by email) a number and link back. When you get to the place where it asks for a username and password, put in what you want to use and you are all set.Posted 16 years ago # -

MemberHi Face
Please don't be so readily dismissive of other people's problems!!
I'm NOT new to the forum nor to GOTD project, and after trying MANY MANY MANY times, could NEVER create an accnt!!
Tried on several PCs/Laptops, tried several different eMails, tried at different times of the day/night.
I ONLY got an error page EVERY time!! My husband tried also, w the same results.
Glad it was sooo easy for you.
It was NOT user error for Darius23 or Whitemist, as it was not for me either!If you can help, please do so without implying *we* are not doing it right!
People come to the forum for help, not for flippant remarks, special newcomers that don't know who/what/where.To Darius & Whitemist:
You didn't need an account to dwld/use EN 2.2, it was needed only for the EN Beta3.
Hope u got to dwld the EN 2.2, as it is a rather nice program.
If u need more help, don't hesitate to ask, generally ppl are very nice and helpful in this forum!

MemberHi Babs, glad to see u here ;-)
Well, there's nothing to do now, since it's past the hour...
At least u got through the first step, I could never pass through that "Error Page"Maybe they had a server problem, I don't know...
You should contact the company directly, since u were able to register the accnt.
Don't think it would do me any good though, since I didn't. Try it, u have nothing to lose!!Edit:
Just remembered that the big boss from EN made a post on the comment's page, saying *all* eMails were being sent within minutes, after several complained they hadn't received theirs... So YES, u should contact them ASAPPosted 16 years ago # -

MemberLeKanaw - Geez, get a grip!
There was nothing in my post that was in any way intended as dismissive, nor did I imply that anyone was "not doing it right".
I simply responded to whitemist's request for help. I asked, "Why can't you create an account?" in an attempt to identify where the problem occurred in the process. Since time was running out for the giveaway, I then detailed the exact steps (as best I could remember) that I followed, approximately 15 minutes earlier, to complete the process successfully, in case there was not enough time to get details back and forth.
If you had bothered to check - I have never responded to any post here in a rude or dismissive manner and, in fact, have gone out of my way to answer posts from newcomers.

In your corners ladies. Face's response was fine - just asking "why couldn't create an account". Nothing to be gained biting a hand that is trying to help.
Nobody has mentioned the captcha (that string of letters/numbers you type copied from a distorted graphic of the same letters/numbers). Did that appear & was it entered correctly?
I downloaded and created my account - first time - no errors - about 60 minutes before the end of the giveaway. I got my email with the activation code about 10 seconds after that. I just checked and the page is still available.
If you pm me the details I can try to create an account on your behalf.

MemberMaybe u 2 are right and I'm just tired. just generally tired of the human race.
I really didn't see the comment in that light.
Sorry, I shouldn't talk to ppl when I'm feeling like this...Nobody has mentioned the captcha
No, I didn't mention it, cause I thought it was no point in it, the time had passed.
Yes, entered the captcha MANY times, refresh/re-enter, refresh/re-enter the new one.
Was very careful ea time, always the same result:
Error: Page not found
The location you provided is not validThank u for the offer MrB, very kind of you to offer. I'll send info shortly, if it's not a big bother.
I know u have better things to do than help a loony Kanaw...EDIT:
And I forgot to factor in too many languages in one's brain, can make a mess on perception too...Posted 16 years ago # -

Memberyou're welcome- hope the link's still up for you.
ns is great, but I'm used to having to temporarily allow sites for online forms. just never googleanything.
this is the signup link the gaotd page used. (http://preview.evernote.com/Registration.action?code=G40Td)

Thanks BuBBy that you wanted to help. I didn't see your post earlier, left the puter as the GODT offer ended. I had no error notice, every thing was normal, only the email with the wanted code did not arrive.
Tried to reenter the whole process, but got the answer that an account with this name and email already exists. Never mind, maybe they have enough guests invited from Europe or women or grays ... Have the updated proggy, which is the most important.Posted 16 years ago # -
hello, graylox...
since your name & e-mail are entered in the EverNote database, can you just ask for a password reset, or does the program need to be unlocked?...
when i open the Beta, it asks for "User Name" & "Password" to run the program...
if i leave both blank & click on "Forgot Your Password?", it takes me to the web page where i can ask for a new temporary password to be sent...it asks for your username or e-mail address to be entered...
as long as you are in the database, there must be some solution...e-mail them, install the Beta & use your username/password, something...?...
dmitry at EverNote, comment #27 yesterday: You’ll be able to keep using the account you create during beta. It will just get better and better… ;)
alex at Evernote, comment # 35: If you got an account for our beta - you can download the desktop clients at any time and use them (win, mac & windows mobile), but you can only get an account for the duration of this promo, or via our invitation
alex, #122: what is your email? Servers are fine, but there is a lot of emails in the queue since many mailservers are rate-limiting connections and gray listing. I can check if you are among them
since your account exists, was created during the promo, & you are supposed to be able to download the desktop clients at any time and use them...there must be some solution to the problem...
also...did you try logging into preview.evernote.com to see if you can access the account that was created ( thru your browser instead of the software )?...
hope something there helps...

MemberHi GdGOTD
Sorry I didn't answer b4, had to go rest for a while, was feeling awful!!
No, the link u posted was no longer valid, was already going to the general Beta SighUp page. But thanks just the same :-DTell me, what did u mean by: just never googleanything?
You don't use GG? Which Search Engine do u use then? And what does that have to do w the
Registration Forms? Monkey here scratching head... ;-)
I think I'll put a post-it up or something, try not to forget AGAIN to allow, when filling forms.
I think I *never* thought of it, bc generally there's always something on the page that gives us a clue to allow. But there was NOTHING on this one!!
Anyhoo, it's not the end of the world, I like GNotebook for online stuff.Hi Violet:
Great idea, I think Gray will be able to do it like u said.
It's the middle of the night there now, me thinks she'll try it when she gets back :-DPosted 16 years ago # -
Manu,
If you go Here
Right on their front page it says "Find out more about the exciting new Evernote..We're putting in the finishing touches on the new Evernote. If you would like to receive an invitation to the beta, please click here. So go click there. Seems all you have to do is answer a few questions and give them your email addy and they will send you an invite. :)

MemberI never allow Google-analytics or Google ads, etc. tracking stuff that isn't from the site itself. :)
just the minimum to let the site run, and that usually just temporarily.
searching- I don't often use a search engine directly, I use a multi-engine metasearch tool like Telescope, which sorts the results by match percentage regardless of engine.

Oops, had to edit my link. Sorry. And remember...It's Easter Weekend so unless it's automated you may have to wait till Monday.

MemberHi Ambassador
Joyeuses Pâques à toute la Famille!Thank You for ur link! Very nice! :-D
Well, I did register through there within the hour after the GOTD offer expired, just in case.
I don't think it will be successful, since now they have a rather large pool of testers/customers w all the ppl from here, plus all the advertisement they got.
We'll see. I'll keep using my GNotebook, which I like!, for the onLine stuff.What did bother me most was Not Knowing the Why it didn't work!!
I knew I was doing everything right, tried many times through out the 24hrs, it was really puzzling.
Thank goodness GdGOTD came along w an answer!!
I was quite disappointed not being able to solve the mystery!Posted 16 years ago # -

MemberHi GdGOTD

You saved me a LOT of grief & stress & hair pulling!!
Yes, I'm like u, no GG analytics, Ads, etc... I *only* allow the strictly minimum at ea. site.---------------------
Now, that Metathingy of yours is mighty In*te*res*ting!!! I started exploring it today. Me likey! Can u tell more about it? Have u used it long? You said "one of the" u use is Telescope. Well now, which others are u hiding from me?Thank You again for the info Gd!!

MemberEvery time I try to get into it am asked to sign up for beta tester. They have never responded back and that's as far as I can go. I tried using the program but it asks for an email and password, and since I didn't create an account, I clicked that on and it takes me back to the same page to sign up to become a beta tester. That is all that happens for me. I really would like to use this program.
